Supporting Appropriation Work -
Approaches for the ‘reflective’ user

Full-Day Workshop at the ECSCW'05

Organisers: Yvonne Dittrich (IT University Copenhagen, Denmark), Paul  
Dourish (University of California at Irvine, USA), Anders Mørch  
(InterMedia, University of Oslo, Norway), Volkmar Pipek  
(International Institute for Socio-Informatics, Bonn, Germany and  
University of Oulu, Finland), Gunnar Stevens
(University of Siegen, Germany), Bettina Törpel (Technical University  
of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark)

<…> a CSCW system should provide facilities supporting users in  
appropriating, exploring, modifying, negotiating etc. - cooperatively  
and yet distributed - ‘community handbooks’ that are openly  
incomplete and inconsistent. Providing support for distributed  
cooperative appropriation, circumvention, modification of the system  
is, perhaps, the toughest challenge in designing computer systems for  
cooperative work. (Schmidt 1991)

Summary: Almost 15 years ago Schmidt formulated the challenge that  
computer systems for cooperative work should not only be designed to  
support users in performing work tasks, but also to support users in  
appropriating the new collaborative technology. CSCW Research  
regarding that challenge has been either based on the more analytical  
perspective of describing the dynamics of appropriation (‘evolving  
use’), or focused on the development of technologies to alter the  
artifacts (‘Tailoring’, ‘End User Development’). This workshops aims  
for establishing a broader research focus on technological and non- 
technological approaches to support users in reflecting and re- 
designing the use (and non-use) of collaborative technologies and to  
set out a research agenda for supporting appropriation work in  
collaborative settings.
